Powder IN-STOCK thread

Primers from $30 to $100 per 1k is the same difference as powder going from $30 to $40 per pound for my 6.5cm. Just for context.
Well I’m not buying that theory or context. Everyone bought 1000 at a time pre-fakedemic. Now you’re spending $70-100 more for the same product and you’re spending $5-10 more per lb. In the long run if you bought enough before the fakedemic? You’re accurate loads could be had for $0.60 a round. Now? You’re accurate loads are about $1.50+ a round. Depending on the type of cartridge of course.

Is gunzdepot a scam ?
Says in stock powder with a $300 minimum
8 pound varget 224$
Sounds too good to be true
I highly doubt it is in stock but who knows
I’d rather deal with trustworthy websites

My 6.5cm load per se is 41gr of h4350 or 170 rounds per pound.

Powder @ $30 per 1lb. $30÷170=17.6 cents per round for powder
Powder @ $40 per 1lb. $40÷170=23.5 cents per round

So primers going from 3 cents to 10 cents each is roughly the same as powder going from $30 to $40 per pound.

BTW I just spend $50/lb for 5lbs of h4350 from Hodgdon. Also I bought a couple thousand 140gr eldm's this August at $370 per 1000. I did end up buying Lapua brass for $93 per 100, which hasn't changed in price enough to matter.

So my costs is $0.76/rd not including brass.
Powder= .29
Primer= .10
Bullet= .37

Now my 338lapua is $1.53/rd which is significantly more, but I don't think it's ever been cheap to shoot. Again not including the price of brass since it hasn't changed much if at all.
Powder= .58
Primer= .10
285gr eldm= .85
 
Just pinned the hodgdon website to my home screen next to gunbot. Gunbot picks up a lot but doesn't see everything. Primers are easy to find under $80/K but I'm finding them cheaper in store now.

Anybody else use gunbot?

You should include the price of brass in equation though

Shippping,hazmat and tax. $245 minus $75 .$170 for 2. That's $85 each brick. No way is this a deal.
 
Accurate 2200 is available on the Hodgdon website. 1 lb'ers only. Limit 5
 
Judas Priest, has anyone seen any 7 mm Hunting bullets in stock. I am looking for 168vld-hunting, Nosler 168 long range or 162, 175 eld-x. It’s like looking for unicorn 🦄 dropping…….
 
I know it is not powder, any lines on Berger .243 109grain Hybrid Target bullets?
 
Brownells this afternoon. CCI Small Rifle. Hazmat fee was only $19.95.
 
Can’t believe no one has posted that 1 site had/has accurate 4350. I know it’s not H or IMR but at least it’s 4350. Only 1 pounders but I got 4 and there was still some left. I’ve never used A4350. Hope it’s just as good (probably not with my luck) LOL
 
Normally I'd hold out for h4350, this stuff is actually pretty close in quality right?
Uncertain, I’m a newbie, I have just been trying to get the powders that are listed for loads of the cartridges I have.
I am trying to start up in a difficult time for starting up.
 
Grabbed 8lbs. Should keep the creed shooting.

I've read somewhere that it can be slightly more temp sensitive but I don't normally trust people's opinions on other sites.

IMR 4350 is in stock at Powder Valley
 
Man today has been the day for 4350. I just got 4 lbs of h4350 and an 8 lb of IMR. Brownells still has the h4350. Shit will the varget or RE16 show up also. That would be great
